Broyles Award semifinalists announced

The Frank and Barbara Broyles Foundation on Tuesday announced the 15 semifinalists for the Broyles Award, given to the nation’s top assistant coach.

The semifinalists were chosen by a panel of voters (full disclosure: I am one of them). The group of 15 will be whittled down to five finalists, who will then attend the award ceremony in Little Rock on Tuesday, Dec. 5.

Previous winners are not eligible to win for the next five seasons. Clemson’s Brent Venables won in 2016.
